New screenplay for any polo fans, lefties, or lawyers
Posted: Tue Oct 30, 2007 8:52 pm
Hey all. Finished a new one. Would love to get any feedback from anybody. If you'd do me the honor of giving it a read, please lemme know either on here or via PM. Thanks.
It is as follows:
----
Logline: Waiting for Guffman meets Slapshots. A civil rights attorney starts a left handed polo league and experiences how it feels to be a misfit.
"RIGHT HAND SNAILS": A character driven comedy with dramatic elements.
--
Upon learning that left handed play is banned in polo, Tyler Herndon, a civil rights attorney and horse lover, starts his own league for southpaws. Along the way, he realizes love and meets some rather unexpected resistance.
--
The work is 101 pages and is a classic pitting of an underdog against the status quo. The comedy is derived from the hilarious incidents that arise due to the different personalities that are brought together and how they deal with adversity. The light moments are mixed with times of drama that gives the story earnest heart.
